Input provided by experts from the GRE TF S/R concerning market surveillance needs for LED replacement light sources. LED replacement light sources enable technology transition from incandescent to LED for vehicles in operation, offering longer lifetime, higher vibration resistance, and lower power consumption. Type-approval framework for LEDr has been established through national approvals and UN R37 approvals. Market surveillance must be improved to ensure only safe, compliant LEDr with type approval are used on public roads. Products without type approval should be offered with correct consumer information and clear restriction for off-road use only. Authorities should remove non-compliant products without type approval if used on public roads.
